Sinossi

Speed Skating explores the captivating blend of physics and technique that allows athletes to achieve incredible speeds on ice. By delving into friction, biomechanics, and training methodologies, the book reveals how skaters manipulate their bodies to minimize resistance and maximize power. A key insight is understanding how ice properties affect skating, as even slight changes in temperature can impact an athlete's performance. 

 
The book progresses logically, first laying a foundation in physics by explaining friction and aerodynamics. It then analyzes the biomechanics of the skating stride, including force production and energy transfer. Finally, it examines advanced training strategies to enhance athletic performance. This approach connects scientific principles with real-world applications, providing skaters and coaches with actionable insights to optimize training and improve technique.

    A Nation Again - The inside...

    A Nation Again is the chaotic tale of the Scotland men's team's return to a major tournament after more than 20 years in the wilderness. 
    Ten had come and gone for Scotland since they reached France '98, but the birth of UEFA's Nations League offered a new route to glory. In early 2018, after a long search for Gordon Strachan's replacement, Alex McLeish became manager for a second time. Despite successfully navigating the Nations League group stage, it wasn't plain sailing, and his tenure ended after a shocking defeat at the start of Euro 2020 qualifying. 
    With a play-off semi-final on the horizon, the Scottish FA turned to Steve Clarke, who took on the challenge of inspiring a team rooted in failure, creating a band-of-brothers mentality and figuring out how to organise this incredibly talented group of players. From a couple of the lowest lows, came the highest high. 
    With exclusive memories and audio from those who were part of the journey, such as John McGinn, Stephen O'Donnell, Lyndon Dykes, Ryan Christie and David Marshall, this is the story of how Scotland finally became a nation again.

    Marianne Bohr and her husband, about to turn sixty, are restless for adventure. They decide on an extended, desolate trek across the French island of Corsica—the GR20, Europe’s toughest long-distance footpath—to challenge what it means to grow old. Part travelogue, part buddy story, part memoir, The Twenty is a journey across a rugged island of stunning beauty little known outside Europe. 
    From a chubby, non-athletic child, Bohr grew into a fit, athletic person with an “I’ll show them” attitude. But hiking The Twenty forces her to transform a lifetime of hard-won achievements into acceptance of her body and its limitations. The difficult journey across a remote island provides the crucible for exploring what it means to be an aging woman in a youth-focused culture, a physically fit person whose limitations are getting the best of her, and the partner of a husband who is growing old with her. More than a hiking tale, The Twenty is a moving story infused with humor about hiking, aging, accepting life’s finite journey, and the intimacy of a long-term marriage—set against the breathtaking beauty of Corsica’s rugged countryside.
